Verse 1 (Kameron-style: grounded, lived-in)
I’ve been the guy that never stayed
Always had one foot pointed the other way
Said I liked the freedom, liked the run
Truth is I was scared of settlin’ on just one
Every town felt temporary
Every promise felt a little too heavy
Verse 2 (still verse energy, more personal)
I’ve burned some bridges I should’ve crossed
Called it pride, but it cost what it cost
I’ve chased noise just to drown things out
Kept movin’ so I didn’t have to figure me out
I was good at leavin’, bad at roots
Good at sayin’ “someday,” bad at truth
Pre-Chorus (turning point)
But then there was you
Standin’ still
Like you already knew
Chorus (Dylan-style: simple, open, emotional)
If the world goes dark
If the road runs thin
If I don’t know where I’m goin’
But I know where I’ve been
When everything’s shakey
And I’m barely holdin’ on
Wherever you are
That’s where I’m gonna be
Verse 3 (growth, no clichés)
You don’t need savin’, you don’t pretend
You just see me where I’ve always been
You don’t rush, you don’t pull
You just let me choose what’s real
For the first time, I ain’t runnin’ fast
I ain’t scared of somethin’ that could last
Pre-Chorus 2 (lift)
I don’t have all the answers figured out
But I know this now
Chorus (bigger, stacked)
If the world goes dark
If the road runs thin
If I don’t know where I’m goin’
But I know where I’ve been
When everything’s shakey
And I’m barely holdin’ on
Wherever you are
That’s where I’m gonna be
Bridge (drop — emotional clarity)
I don’t need a map
I don’t need a sign
I just need a reason
To stop wastin’ time
I’ve been everywhere
Just to finally see
The place I was lookin’ for
Was right in front of me
Final Chorus (full send, hopeful)
If the night comes fast
And the doubt kicks in
If I lose my way
Tryin’ to find myself again
When the noise dies down
And it’s just you and me
Wherever you are
That’s where I’m gonna be
Outro (quiet, confident)
I’ve been a lotta things
But I’m done with runnin’ free
Wherever you are
That’s where I’m gonna be
